Fisker EMotion Hands On @ CES 2018 - Performance Technology

Fisker is a company who's been around
for quite a few years now but is also
someone you might not have heard of.

They made a hybrid luxury sedan in 2011
that demanded $100,000 to get your hands
on then seemingly disappeared while
occasionally showing off some concept
models.

Now Fisker is back and they're
showing off what they hope will be the
car that can finally give Tesla a run
for its money.

This is the Fisker Emotio. The Emotion
looks like a sports car plain and simple.
It takes cues from companies like
Lamborghini to make it fit snugly into
the supercar category but it remains
fully electric and one day fully
autonomous.

This seems to be a new trend
in the automotive industry while cheaper
mainstream electric vehicles are
starting to populate the consumer market
we're happy to see the high-end market
taking notice as well.

This cars using
light our technology all around the car
to detect other motors on the road and
should be able to adjust the changes at
a pretty rapid pace.

The car will
theoretically be able to use this
technology from the get-go but local
governments are still gonna have to
begin to allow driverless cars for this
feature to actually be useful.

The
company isn't planning on making a high
amount of volume like the Tesla Model 3
but the car can still be considered
affordable for what it is at a hundred
and twenty nine thousand dollars. It's a
nice way to get the wealthier part of
the world on board since the car is
extremely striking and could probably
even make multimillionaires feel the
need to buy it.

Fisker is also trying to solve some
common problems related to electric
vehicles currently on the market. The
company is working on a solid-state
battery that it helps will be able to
fully charge the vehicle in just one
minute and it'll apparently give it five
hundred miles of range.
This is also
still a big maybe though and the company
is aiming for 400 miles of range at
launch which is still considerably
higher than many of the electric cars on
the market today. All said and done this
is undoubtedly a concept car. While we're
still hopeful the vehicle actually makes
it to market cos the last car
company went bankrupt in a pretty
spectacular fashion so we'll have to
wait and see what happens in 2019
or 2020.
